Free Web NovelChapter 594: Chapter 405: Array Broken, Monarch’s Arrival! (Double Chapter)
After taking down several Demon Generals, the essence of their flesh and blood floated into his body.
Across the battlefield, the corpses of the Demon Race now covered the ground, and the essence of flesh and blood seemed inexhaustible.
Therefore, Song Changming only collected the blood essence of those of Demon General quality and above to replenish himself, leaving the rest for later.
Boom!
With a loud explosion, the City Defense Array behind him trembled violently, and Song Changming immediately turned to look.
As expected, the array had just taken a hit from a Great Demon. It was a terrifying sight, and people feared the array would be breached at this critical juncture.
Even though Song Changming was actively clearing out the Demon Race, the main city was simply too vast. Many Demons still clung to the different corners of the Protective Array like parasites, continuously exhausting its energy.
After all, Song Changming was just one person; he couldn’t guard every aspect.
If there were no other changes, it was only a matter of time before the City Defense Array was breached!
In an instant, a familiar azure light that Song Changming had seen before struck the City Defense Array again, sending large energy ripples across it.
Song Changming focused his gaze and confirmed it was indeed the Azure Bird Great Demon with whom he had previously crossed paths.
She and the giant python, apparently having ceased their battle at some point, seemed to have reconciled and both now aimed their attacks at the City Defense Array, aggressively assaulting the city!
In the center of the main city, Qian Yuan stood suspended in mid-air, surrounded by over a thousand Top-grade Spirit Crystals!
Vast amounts of Spiritual Qi transformed into pure mist. When a Great Demon attacked the Protective Array, this Spiritual Qi, under Qian Yuan’s control, would be infused into the targeted spots of the array.
He was like a diligent mender, patching the damaged sections of the Protective Array.
This City Defense Array was his creation, and only he could lead this endeavor.
Because of his close connection to this City Defense Array, Hu Tomb had been extremely concerned about this Talisman Master’s safety.
Without finding a successor, to some extent, Qian Yuan was the most crucial guardian of the main city.
By relying on the Protective Array, Qian Yuan could even contend with numerous Great Demons and firmly defend the main city, something ordinary Grandmaster Martial Artists could not achieve.
However, just as the Protective Array has a limit, Qian Yuan also has his boundaries.
This continuous repair of the damaged array was an enormous drain on him.
As time passed, one by one, the Top-grade Spirit Crystals were drained of their Spiritual Qi, losing their luster, but more were swiftly replenished.
At this moment, no one cared about the consumption of Spirit Crystal resources; defending the main city was more important than anything else.
And within the Prince’s Mansion of the main city, there was an ample reserve of high-quality Spirit Crystals.
Inside the city, Third District, Song Residence.
Su Qingqing looked up at the doomsday scene outside the Protective Array, feeling heavy-hearted.
Though she had spent years in the territories of the Demon Race in Yuan Province and interacted with many Demons,
the Demons she encountered in Fox Mountain were entirely different from the chaos of the Demon Race outside.
Fox Mountain was shrouded in spiritual mist year-round, tranquil and peaceful, like a paradise.
There were rarely any invasions by external Demons, few conflicts of interest, and there was no bloodshed or ruthless devouring.
Most Fox Demons were orderly and gentle, maintaining a generally neutral attitude towards the Human Race and rarely intervening in disputes.
Occasionally, a Fox Demon like Su Qingqing’s mother would conceal her identity out of curiosity and travel the human world.
It was for this reason that Su Qingqing was willing to stay with her mother in Fox Mountain for so many years.
Returning from Fox Mountain now, Su Qingqing realized that the Demon Race, like the Human Race, had both good and evil beings.
However, the proportion of Evil Demons among the Demon Race was higher, more ferocious and brutal, while the bad humans in the Human Race were better at hiding their malice and disguising themselves.
In the courtyard, A Da and A Er had nearly emptied the residence of its contents, packing the large bundles into the Qiankun Bag that Song Changming had left for them.
If the worst came to pass and the main city was breached, they would have to evacuate immediately to escape the demon disaster.
Song Ping’an also watched the endlessly shaking array above.
In fact, his heart was even heavier.
If this giant city fell, years of work he had invested would go up in flames, an incalculable loss.
Naturally, he hoped for the main city not to fall, but it wasn’t up to him to decide, and he had to prepare for the worst.
He also understood that if this ancient city that had stood for a thousand years fell, many others would suffer even more and find it harder to accept this outcome.
The noble families who would lose their foundations would undoubtedly feel the most pain.
Boom!
Another earth-shattering explosion echoed.
A giant, spiked tail slammed into the Protective Array above the main city, causing the light screen to quiver violently.
Qian Yuan’s face turned somewhat pale as he looked towards the owner of the tail.
It was a fat lizard with fleshy wings on its back, and its tail extended for a hundred meters, casting a shadow over the district, its enormous, terrifying Demon body inspiring only fear!
Without a doubt, this was also a newly arrived Great Demon!
Moreover, Qian Yuan clearly felt that this monster inflicted the most severe damage on the City Defense Array!
Far more brutal than any other Great Demon!
This further compounded the situation and began to overwhelm him.
